RULE g f'Gct busy Make use of your time.', Some heedless persons refuse to take note. There is talking but silence is soon restored. John Larson, Robert Finley, George Stoik are mutually interested.

Studying ?-Sleeping? 1 llecitation is the Waterloo of all pupils whose minds had not been concentrated on books during that precious study period.

Reverend Father Matt, our beloved coach, makes regulations that all athletes must comply with. We are proud to say that all are eager to observe these perfectly. We must strive to respect our rules and regulations. lf Awe refuse we must fall, for no institution, no matter how strong, can exist without the co-operation of its members or students. There is only one way and that way is to build around our rules and regulations a wall of enforcement. No other principle is logical, no other 1S American, and above all, no other is just.
